I know this has nothing to do with baseball, but there was a team in the NFL in the late 40s named the Boston Yanks. So the name Boston Yanks isn’t that weird. And in the 30’s the NFL had teams called the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Pittsburgh Pirates (who were renamed the Steelers in 1940). And don’t forget the New York Giants and the St. Louis Cardinals (now the Arizona Cardinals).

It must have been confusing back in the old days.
